Exploring the ways that health science creates professionals who keep us safe.

At A.T. Still University, students discovered skills attained through attending professional school including:

Analyzing swabbed samples for growth with a microbiologist

Working through the puzzles of side-effects and polypharmacy with a pharmacist

Interacting with a D.O. student and learning about the particularities of his career choices

Practicing skills on real dental model heads

Hearing heart & lung sounds in the Truman State University Nursing Simulation Lab

Students also had the opportunity to tour Kirksville College of Osteopathic Medicine and Missouri School of Dentistry and Oral Health as well as use ultrasound to find tumors and assess fetal growth, and try their hand at basic life support skills in the simulation lab.

This event is open to high school and college students who are Missouri residents.
